First time in history…

"Never before in history has there been a situation where a bite from a mosquito could result in a devastating malformation,“ Dr. Tom Frieden, CDC Director, Fortune, April 13, 2016
“…the last time an infectious pathogen (rubella virus) caused an epidemic of congenital defects was more than 50 years ago…” – S.Rasmussen et al. New England Journal of Medicine, April 13, 2016
“[Zika] became the first major infectious disease linked to human birth defects to be discovered in more than half a century and created such global alarm that the World Health Organization (WHO) would declare a Public Health Emergency of International Concern.” – Petersen et al. New England Journal of Medicine, March 30, 2016

Order Sets
• How can Zika related order sets be incorporated into health IT products?
• The local variation challenge introduced complexity-mapping variations may prohibit an automated push of orders sets
• Current documentation (i.e., vocabulary standards, etc.) on order sets as related to the clinical guidance documents remain useful
12
Next Steps: Addressing Ongoing Challenges
• Clinical Decision Support modules on the Zika workflow are still built at the local level (i.e., practice/hospital)
• Capture of Pregnancy Status and other data related to case management of Zika cases
» Pregnancy status/outcomes
» Infant status/outcomes
» Linkage to US Zika Pregnancy Registry
13
Capture of Pregnancy Status in EHRs
• Testing Locations are expanding: » More states are developing capacity for IgM
(immunoglobulin M) and plaque reduction neutralization antibody testing (PRNT)
» Additional testing in commercial laboratories
• Participation in the US Zika Pregnancy Registry supports Zika response efforts » More data would be available to monitor and understand
Zika and pregnancy in the United States » Pregnancy reporting supports a coordinated public health
response
14
Building an All-Hazards Approach
15
Building an All Hazards Approach
• Consider
» Best practices from Ebola and MERS response to aid Zika response efforts (day to day)
» Standards Use, e.g.,
– Clinical Quality Framework/Clinical Decision Support
– Structured Data Capture
16
All Hazards Approach: Collecting the Right Information: The Patient Profile
Patient Characteristics •Gender •Age •Pregnancy Status, sexual activity
Exposure •Where were you? When were you there? •Examples: travel history, lived in Flint MI, known down wind of a radiation incident
Symptoms •What the patient says •E.g. chief complaint – “I have the worst headache ever”
Physical findings •What the provider measures, e.g. temperature •What the provider observes, eg. Patient appears sensitive to light
Assessment and Plans • Tests •Orders (pregnancy) • Results
17
All Hazards Approach: Workflow/Moving the Right Information Across the Care Continuum
Patients who have traveled to areas at risk (e.g., known Zika Virus transmission, lead exposure or radiation)
TRIGGER
Identify patients with risk, e.g., •All patients presenting to clinic •All pregnant female patients
EXPOSURE SYMPTOMS
Patient history / symptoms based on the suspected exposure
FINDINGS - EXAMINATION TESTING TREATMENT ISOLATION REFERRAL
Findings on examination consistent with the condition or exposure
Studies appropriate to help define if the condition is present
Recommendations regarding how to manage a) The patient b) Healthcare workers c) The patient’s exposures
18
All Hazards Approach: Building Blocks
Establishing the right building blocks must consider the hazard:
• For a given situation, the order of the building blocks may change and certain blocks may be of less importance. The objective is to determine the right blocks and where they belong.
• Other considerations may include order and workflow optimization (i.e. move individuals out of the queue, drive reflective questioning)
